Paper Christmas Trees

This is an easy project that would make a great Christmas decoration or gift.

I took three clay pots and painted them with chalk paint.

Cut foam to fit inside.

Placed a wooden skewer in the center.

Cut squares of Hymnals in graduated sizes and poked pages to the top.

Added green moss and snow to cover foam.

My idea was to find a holly graphic from The Graphics Fairy and transfer the image to the pot.

You could use any image. Karen always has the best ones. The are so many to choose from. I liked the vintage Santa too. Just modpodge and use printed image print side down on pot and rub really well. Thats it! peel up and the calk paint absorbs the image right away.

I used a sharpie and hand wrote "Happy Hollydays" on the other trees pots.
